Rating for France-Bordeaux-Saint-Estèphe: 87 (average year)<br/><br/>Drinkability: young, aging quickly, could be good now<br/>

57% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Cabernet Franc, 2% Petit Verdot. 15% new oak. Dark crimson. Scented and very opulent. Lovely for now. Truly juicy and sweet - black fruits and liquorice. Sweet and easy - just not very concentrated. Succulent start and only a problem on the finish where the tannins start to bite. For early drinking - very well managed. Though pretty tannic and dry on the finish. 2013-17 17
